Colours are blocked, camouflage is on show and red, white and navy are working autumn trends. From radical street culture of the early noughties to mainstream fashion, hoodies have definitely come in out of the cold.

Beat the weather in a hoodie

While still retaining a touch of urban sporty attitude hoodies have rocketed up the fashion charts. The tracksuit effect is big on this season's catwalks so work the look by coordinating logo hoodies with matching sweatpants. Adding stripes and floral prints with your trainers delivers a trending finish. Pick a messenger bag over a backpack to instantly take your hoodie combo from gym casual to weekend style. Designers have smartened up these athleisure essentials with cosy knitted hoodies. Their muted shades layer over button-down shirts and suit trousers for office winter wear. Quilted hoodies partnered with jeans or athletic base layers give weather resistance for the outdoors.

Hoodies - boyish looks for the girls

From neat Breton striped hoodies with cropped jeans for the Hepburn look, to grunge layering for weekend attitude, the athleisure trend keeps on going. Really work the layers with longline zipped hoodies over crop tops, then add cuffed joggers, peep-toe heels and a winter coat. With mid-season weather versatility this outfit takes you from shopping trips to nights out with the girls. If your day off involves the gym fitted around essential chores then hit the pastel trend with slogan hoodies. Keep it sporty with black leggings, colourful sneakers and autumn friendly beanies or bobble hats.
